You should perhaps reserve the "Duh" for yourself.
We have several very fine Indian restaurants within easy driving
distance of home. All the following dishes are available at one or
more of them, with chicken, lamb or BEEF.
Jalfrazi (also with goat)
Vindaloo (also with goat)
Kadhai
Saag
Curry (also with goat)
Korma
Not one dish with pork so it's safe to assume the owners are muslim.
And, if all Indians of Hindu persuasion choose to avoid these places,
I'd have to say the businesses haven't suffered for lack of clientele.

The above mentioned restaurants are located in Canada which is not
much different from the USA.
But, a quick Google search of menus at Indian themed restaurants in
the USA also produced many with beef.
